We’re thrilled to announce the return of the Invest Canada Webinar Series! Prepare for cutting-edge insights, expert analysis, and a deep dive into the latest trends shaping the Canadian investment landscape.
We’re kicking off the series with an exciting webinar: Investing Internationally as a Canadian VC, presented by Apex Innovative Investments Fund.
Despite a growing and robust Canadian tech ecosystem, the country has minted fewer than 30 unicorns in the past decade compared to the US’s 700. Should Canadian VCs expand their investment mandate internationally? If so, what’s the optimal approach to accessing global opportunities, navigating financial and cultural differences, and providing meaningful value? Alternatively, should they focus on strengthening the Canadian tech ecosystem? Is the lack of unicorns primarily a cultural, structural, or financial issue, or a combination? Can VCs play a role in addressing these challenges? Speakers: Mana Hosseini, Managing Partner at Apex Ventures Matan Hazanov, Managing Partner at Enigma Ventures Moderated by: Kim Furlong, CEO, CVCA
